[verse 1]
some people say a man is made outta mud
a poor man’s made outta muscle and blood
muscle and blood and skin and bones
a mind that’s a-weak and a back that’s strong

[chorus]
you loaded sixteen tons, what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

[verse 2]
i was born one mornin’ when the sun didn’t shine
i picked up my shovel and i walked to the mine
i loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
and the straw boss said “well, a-bless my soul”

[chorus]
you loaded sixteen tons, what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

[verse 3]
i was born one mornin’, it was drizzlin’ rain
fightin’ and troubles are my middle name
i was raised in the canebrake by an ol’ mama lion
no-a high-toned woman [?]

[chorus]
you loaded sixteen tons, what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store

you loaded sixteen tons
you loaded sixteen tons
but what do you get? nothing!

[verse 4]
if you see me comin’, better step aside
a lotta men didn’t, a lotta men died
i’ve got one fist of iron, the other of steel
if the right one don’t a-get you
then the left one will
just one thing i would ask of you
do they owe your ashes, they surely do

[chorus]
you loaded sixteen tons, what do you get
another day older and deeper in debt
saint peter don’t you call me ’cause i can’t go
i owe my soul to the company store
